Subject: [PATCH] serial: 8250: Enable 16550A variants by default on non-x86

Some embedded devices still use these serial ports; make sure they're
still enabled by default on architectures more likely to have them, to
avoid rendering someone's console unavailable.

Based on user reports from embedded devices that need these variants.

 	  The 8250 driver can probe for many variants of the venerable 16550A
 	  serial port. Doing so takes additional time at boot.
